14 individuals were arrested and charged with human trafficking and sexual exploitation associated with the Cadillac Strip Club. Another 26 suspects were held, implicated in running prostitution rings with the sex slaves out of a downtown Mexico City hotel.

Human trafficking in Mexico as of last year is a federal crime.

The victims, that reportedly included minors, were forced to hand over their earnings to the men. If the girls did not pay or did not earn enough they were thrown out on the street with no resources.
